8Alamán, Lucas, Historia
de
Méjico
(Mexico, 1849-1852), III, 487-488.
Alamán drew much of his Historia
from personal observation, and could
easily have heard the story of Toledo's press from eyewitnesses. It is
evident that he also used the Breve
Apologia
(1827) of Bernardo
Gutiérrez. (See note 37.)
